COMPLETE ***** "That mask covers like 2% of your face a good pair of sunglasses would be more effective." "Hey, in every Superhero movie when they are in disguise that's what they wear and no one recognizes them." ***** Rya Morgan hates Superheroes. Well, maybe not hates. But in a world where everyone adores the enhanced, Rya's avid distrust makes her an outsider in a sea of mega fans. So when she's thrust from her relatively normal life into a classically cliched Superhero story, Rya fights her hardest to get out. Too bad her best friend Trey Roberts also happens to be the newest member of the League of Heroes. He might be new to the whole Superhero thing, but he's not going to let Rya get hurt on his watch. Unfortunately, that leaves just one option, for Trey's mysterious partner LP to intervene. For a Hero, he sure does have an off-the-books way of working that causes he and Rya to clash instantly. The more ingrained into her life the Supers become the more desperate Rya is to figure out who's targeting her, and more importantly, who LP is beneath the mask. Rya is willing to do anything for the truth. Anything, that is, except reliving the memories she's tried so hard to erase. ***** | First Place | The Pizza Awards ***** Warnings : Mild language, Mentions of depression and suicide

Superheroes and supervillains. That's what they were in the beginning. Until they matured and the superheroes became the Elites and the supervillains became the Reigners. Now things are much more complicated. Nicole Fletcher, daughter of a famed Elite Chosen, is selected to receive a superpower. When she becomes an Elite and meets her teammates: a bashful mechanic, the son of a millionaire, and a sassy AI, she doesn't think things could get any worse. And then the crescent moon appears, and she must conceal her past before it destroys her. Greycen McCain is on the run. Armed with a sense of justice and his Reigner teammates: a brusque farm girl and a speedster with asthma, he must run from the virtual-warping villain of his past. But secrets will always claw their way to the surface. It's either the crescent or the claws. Welcome to the world of superpowers, where powers become your prison. 🏆ACHIEVEMENTS🏆 First place for best action sequence, awarded by TheMystiqueCircle Featured on the reading lists of Super-Community and projectsuper Ranked #1 in the supers category on May 20, 2024
